Chapter 1511 The muscular man chasing the wild boar
Whether he is the Warden or the King of Hamura, these are the titles Lin Ran used to have in Blue Star.
It seems like all this has been a long time ago.
Especially the King of Hamura, there are very few people who call Lin Ran this way, except for the Hamura group in the Higashimoto Islands.
Therefore, when the second title comes out, the scope of investigation can be infinitely narrowed.
Looking at the leader of the Black Moon Tribe in front of him and seeing him uncovering the black cloth, Lin Ran coughed twice.
He said with difficulty: "You are...what are you Sakamoto...by the way, Koutarou Sakamoto?"
That's right, it's him!
Lin Ran went to the Dongben Islands at that time, and on the way to Lianzhou by train, he met a 36-year-old D-level warrior, this is Kotaro Sakamoto!
At that time, Kotaro Sakamoto was very loyal. He didn't know Lin Ran's strength, but he took the initiative to ask for a break when he was in danger, which left a very good impression on Lin Ran.
"It's not easy. After such a long time, the warden still remembers my name." Kotaro Sakamoto said with a smile.
"So, you just lied to me. You said you couldn't leave the Netherworld at all." Lin Ran glared at the other party.
"After all, the information I give out is all for a fee, and most of the free information is fake, except of course, the one about Arrow Hidden Ryu." Kotaro Sakamoto chuckled.
That mean look made Lin Ran feel familiar again.
"Jian Yinliu?" Lin Ran then remembered what the other party was talking about!
At that time, Lin Ran was looking for the location of the mysterious Arrow Hidden Ryu, but Kotaro Sakamoto suddenly remembered that one of his ex-girlfriends was poached by someone from the Arrow Hidden Ryu, so he "happily" took Arrow
Yinliu's secret address was told to Lin Ran.
At that time, Lin Ran didn't think there was anything unusual, but now it seems... all the coincidences were carefully arranged!
"Your acting skills are too good." Lin Ran shook his head, not knowing what to say, feeling like he was laughing.
"The chief warden's memory is too bad." Kotaro Sakamoto chuckled and said, "I have made so much money from you, but you still haven't remembered my other identity."
"You made so much money from me?"
After hearing this, Lin Ran thought of what the other party said just now, "The information I give is all for a fee." So, his eyes widened!
"I'll go, is it you?" Lin Ran took a deep breath: "The muscular man chasing wild boars?"
Kotaro Sakamoto handed Lin Ran a glass of water, and then said with a noncommittal smile:
"Come on, drink some water and calm down."
"What the hell...how many identities do you have?" Lin Ran really didn't know what to say.
I have bought information from the "muscular man who hunts wild boar" so many times, but I didn't expect that the last time I met him in Dongben Islands, I didn't even recognize him! And this time, they were under such conditions again.
See you next time!
Who would have thought that the intelligence boss of the Black Sea Continent would actually be the tribal leader in this netherworld!
"How did you come from Blue Star?" Lin Ran took a sip of water, and then asked: "Could it be that you also came to the distant planet through the Netherworld Passage?"
In fact, Lin Ran's mood is not that relaxed now.
Along the way, he had seen so many incredible things. Lin Ran knew that there would be even more shocking facts waiting for him next, and it was difficult for him to face the nervous shocks again and again with a calm mood.
Even now, he couldn't tell whether this "muscular man chasing wild boars" was a human or a wolf.
"Master Warden, who said that to reach this netherworld from Blue Star, you must pass through a distant planet?" Kotaro Sakamoto said.
"Really?" Lin Ran then thought of a very crucial question: "Will you charge for your answer this time?"
"There is no charge, and it's all true." Kotaro Sakamoto said, "I don't want to lie in front of you."
Ma De, this guy just started talking nonsense when he first met Lin Ran. He really lied without blushing.
"Then tell me, how did you get here?" Lin Ran said.
"That is, the portal to the Netherworld can also be opened on Blue Star." Kotaro Sakamoto said: "Of course, this is top secret, and the probability of opening it is very low."
"Can this space lead to Blue Star?" Lin Ran frowned fiercely: "Can it still be like this?"
He knew almost nothing about the concept of cosmic dimensions and space, and the emergence of the Netherworld Passage broke all the previous judgments of astronomers about the laws of the universe.
However, Lin Ran thought carefully about what he had experienced recently, and felt that what Kotaro Sakamoto said should be the truth.
"So, my Lord Warden, we haven't seen each other for so long, shouldn't we give him a hug?" Sakamoto Kotaro opened his arms with a smile.
"Hug my ass." Lin Ran said, "I don't even know your name yet."
"I am Kotaro Sakamoto."
"Nonsense, if that was your real name, I would rip off my head and play it as a ball for you." Lin Ran said angrily.
He is now really suffering from the problem of being suspicious and sensitive. When he encounters anything, he instinctively chooses not to believe it and instinctively wonders if there is any deep meaning and conspiracy behind it.
"Haha, this time, the warden really made a mistake. This is indeed my real name." Sakamoto Kotaro said: "After all, there should be a place for Higashikata in this starry sky, right?"
He is indeed acknowledging his Dongben Islands identity!
Lin Ran understood the other party's subtext and narrowed his eyes: "So, you have already occupied a place in the starry sky?"
"I dare not say it in the starry sky, but in this netherworld, I really sit in the top three." Kotaro Sakamoto said with a smile, showing a little contentment on his face: "This member of the Black Moon Tribe
Its status is probably equivalent to the Carmen Prison on the Black Sea Continent."
Lin Ran said: "So, where did Han Xiqiao go?"
As a result, Kotaro Sakamoto's expression froze on his face.
He also wanted to wait for Lin Ran to ask about the specific status of the Black Moon Tribe. Unexpectedly, the other party was not interested at all!
"Miss Han said she wanted to explore the other end of the wasteland, and she has already left." Kotaro Sakamoto said: "The warden can rest assured that with Miss Han's strength, there will never be any danger in this space.
"
"Then why did you call me here?" Lin Ran said: "I thought I could see Han Xiqiao here, but now it seems that my trip was completely in vain."
"But don't you deserve to be happy when you see me?" Sakamoto Kotaro said: "Now, in the Black Sea Continent of Blue Star, the warden is the only person who knows who I am."
Lin Ran sneered unceremoniously: "So, I should feel honored for this, right?"
Bian Yongxian also nodded: "Let's go, I always feel that this tribal leader has a kind of obsessive narcissism, like a psychopath."
"you……"
Kotaro Sakamoto was completely helpless: "I tell you the news about Han Xiqiao for free. If you don't thank me, why do you still use words to hurt me?"
"Unless you can lead us to find Han Xiqiao, everything will be in vain." Lin Ran said: "After all, you and I could only be regarded as business partners in the past. We were all interested in each other, not friends at all."
"Then I'm being pretentious... I always thought we were friends." Sakamoto Kotaro said with a somewhat aggrieved look on his middle-aged man's face, "Well, I will accompany you to find Miss Han now to prove it.
Everything I said is true."
"That's pretty much it."
Lin Ran laughed, took a step forward, gave Kotaro Sakamoto a heavy hug, and said enthusiastically: "My old friend, I am so happy to see you here."
Kotaro Sakamoto: “???”
Bian Yongxian: "???"
Being hugged by Lin Ran and almost out of breath, Sakamoto Kotaro said with a difficult face: "I think I still underestimated the shamelessness of the prison director. Compared with you, I really am not a profiteer."
"Then let's go." Lin Ran said, "Leave now."
"Okay." Sakamoto Kotaro didn't delay at all. It could be seen that no matter what the purpose was, he now wanted to be tied to Lin Ran.
The three of them went out. Lin Ran said as they walked: "What is going on in this space? Why is it so big?"
Originally, he thought this place was just a netherworld wasteland, but as he walked, it became wider and wider, and he met so many people that it seemed endless.
"Actually, in this space, I am indeed the warden's best partner." Sakamoto Kotaro said: "After all, I am an encyclopedia, and I basically know all the information here."
Lin Ran said expressionlessly: "Well, it would be better if you could stop talking nonsense and answer the question I just asked."
"This space is really huge and cannot be explored to the edge. It is like the prototype of a world." Kotaro Sakamoto said: "Many people here died in the barren wasteland. After they left the settlement, they came back.
He didn’t come back either.”
"Is there no one who has successfully passed through that wasteland?" Lin Ran asked.
"Of course there is." Sakamoto Kotaro pointed to himself: "That's me."
Every time he saw the proud look on his face, Lin Ran had the urge to hit him.
"Okay, tell me, what's on the other side of the wasteland?"
"It's a place like an abyss of hell. It's dark and barren of grass. It's extremely scary."
Kotaro Sakamoto paused and then said: "We all call it the Netherworld Abyss."
"Why this name? Does an abyss cliff also need to be prefixed with the word 'Netherworld'?" Lin Ran said.
"Yes, everywhere there is filled with the power of the netherworld. I don't know when the door to the space will suddenly open and I will be swept into another folded space with an unknown name." Sakamoto Kotaro said: "It's really scary."
Lin Ran even saw lingering fear on his face.
That kind of fear is definitely not a disguise.
Lin Ran frowned when he heard this: "Since the Netherworld Abyss is so dangerous, why does Han Xiqiao still go there?"
Kotaro Sakamoto said: "Because only by entering that land of death can it be possible to live towards death."
Lin Ran's eyes flashed: "So, that's the only exit from here? Otherwise, you will be trapped in the netherworld forever?"
"For some people, it is to find their way back and leave." Sakamoto Kotaro continued: "However, for others, they are running towards the future."
"What do you mean by the future?"
Lin Ran felt that he should belong to the "other people" mentioned by Kotaro Sakamoto.
Kotaro Sakamoto raised his hand and pointed at the dark sky: "The realm of the sky, above the stars."
"The realm of the sky?" Lin Ran's eyes suddenly narrowed: "Where is that place?"
This is not the first time Lin Ran has heard the term "Sky Realm".
The first time I heard about it, it was from Bian Yongxian’s mouth
At that time, Bian Yongxian hid his identity and infiltrated the hunter team. He heard Captain Weiss mention the realm of the sky once. After returning, Bian Yongxian relayed this word to Lin Ran.
"That is the purest world of source power, the paradise that warriors dream of. When you go there, you can see all the stars."
When he said this, Kotaro Sakamoto looked fascinated.
But Bian Yongxian was very calm: "I have used all my luck and talent in my life to break through the stars, and I no longer expect to go any further."
Lin Ran asked: "In other words, all the stars are in the realm of the sky?"
Just now, Kotaro Sakamoto mentioned "the world of source power", which made Lin Ran a little stunned.
Because it’s not like he has never seen the world of source power!
Once, in the deep-sea beast in the Senwei Islands, Lin Ran and Sarah were washed into a folded space. At that time, there was a sea of source power everywhere, and the energy was inexhaustible.
!
Could it be said that the sky realm has a similar structure?
"If you want to enter the realm of the sky, do you have to reach above the stars?" Lin Ran asked.
"No, as long as we can open the space portal, we can go in." Sakamoto Kotaro said: "And that portal is in the Netherworld Abyss."
"When you say that, I probably understand a little bit." Lin Ran said.
His yearning for the stars is not as strong as finding his family in the sky.
At this point, Lin Ran has already understood that his father is probably in the sky.
Kotaro Sakamoto said: "Furthermore, according to my speculation, the lost Nether Crystal should be in the Netherworld Abyss."
Lin Ran smiled and said: "Up to now, every word you say is leading me to that place. What you are doing is too obvious and too anxious, isn't it?"
"Ahem." Kotaro Sakamoto coughed twice and said awkwardly: "Is it so obvious?"
"Of course, even I can see it." Bian Yongxian chuckled.
"I still feel that this trip is very dangerous, and you are the chosen one. If I follow you, my life will definitely be easier." Sakamoto Kotaro said.
"So, Han Xiqiao is not necessarily in that abyss, and you just used her name to lure me there?"
"No, no, I can swear that I never lied to you about Han Xiqiao!" Kotaro Sakamoto said quickly.
"So, who is standing behind you??" Lin Ran stared at Kotaro Sakamoto, half-smiling but not smiling, with strong pressure in his eyes: "After all, all your information comes from a higher level
perspective, this is not the level that the so-called intelligence network can achieve."
"You are so smart. Chatting with you is really stressful." Kotaro Sakamoto said helplessly: "There is indeed a star standing behind me, but you can rest assured that he is protecting Blue Star.
"
Lin Ran smiled and said: "So, those above the stars are the real planners? They use the universe as a chessboard and are wrestling with each other??"
"It can be understood this way." Kotaro Sakamoto said: "They are as powerful as gods, but they are also human beings with seven emotions and six desires. They cannot let go of certain things in the world."
Shaking his head slightly, Lin Ran said solemnly: "It seems that I really have to go to this realm in the sky."
The kind of wars at the bottom that lead to destruction of the world are often caused by an order from the top. The gap between the chess pieces and the chess players is really too big.
But among those stars, they have not given up their worldly duties, but are looking for successors or spokespersons for themselves.
At this point, Lin Ran finally understood where the fate that Yuri had been trying to break came from!
And he, like Yuri, doesn't want to be a puppet whose destiny is arranged in advance!
Just when Lin Ran made the decision to go to the Sky Realm, at this moment, the whole space suddenly started to tremble with rumbles!
The tremors were so violent that the ground cracked and sand and rocks flew, as if it was the end of the world!
The ground undulated like waves, and chasms appeared, extending into the infinite distance. It was even difficult for Lin Ran to steady his body!
It suddenly turned dark!!
A few seconds later, it suddenly became daytime again!
Then, it was dark again!
In this way, night and day alternate continuously, with no rules at all, and it seems to be completely chaotic!
